Charity Scarves!!!!

A few more scarves done for the homeless shelter. With my huge stash of yarn I thought I would get busy using some up for a great donation. My sweet neighbor donates  two days a week at the shelter volunteering in the kitchen and graciously passes my scarves out for me.  I also like to keep a few with me in the car so if I see someone  freezing I will stop and give them a scarf and any change in my pocket.  I feel so great joy when I see a huge smile upon their faces sometimes they don't speak but their smile says it all.

    Yea for you Christy! That is such a wonderful thing to do. Selfless acts of kindness truly are a blessing to the receiver and the giver. I crocheted 20 scarves a few years ago and donated them to Operation Hope which helps to give winter warmth to third country nationals. The scarves were sold at bazaars to raise money for items that would be bought and bagged to hand out in December and January when it is the coldest here. I am going to a Textile meeting tonite where crochet is on the agenda and talks about crocheting an afghan for charity. :) Hope your day is great. Tammy
